House of Shadows

House of Shadows

Sophieâ€™s world is shattered when disaster bankrupts her family. Sheâ€™s still reeling from the news when sheâ€™s offered an unexpected solution: Mr Argenton, a wealthy stranger, asks for her hand in marriage.

Marrying Mr Argenton will restore her familyâ€™s fortunes and save them from scandal, but condemns Sophie to a life in Northwood, a vast and unnaturally dark mansion situated hours from civilisation.

Sophie struggles to adjust to her new position as mistress over the desolate house. Mr Argentonâ€™s relatives are cold, and Mr Argenton himself is keeping secrets. Even worse, the house is more than it seems.

Mr Argentonâ€™s young cousin, Elise, draws terrifying images. Doors slam. Inhuman figures slink through the forest surrounding the house. A piano plays in the middle of the night. Blood drips from the ceilings.

Sophie is inevitably pulled towards the terrifying truth: Northwoodâ€™s ancient halls are haunted by the familyâ€™s long-dead ancestors. The malevolent spiritsâ€”produced by grisly deathsâ€”resent her intrusion into their home.

Trapped in Northwood and desperate for an escape, Sophieâ€™s fate is further complicated as she finds herself irrevocably drawn to the tall, dark-eyed man she married. She suspects her feelings are returned, but Mr Argenton is hiding the truth about the houseâ€”and his secrets are so dangerous that they might just be unforgivable.
